We don't put everyone on Postini. We charge those that want the filtering $1 per month. Like John and Forbes, it's cost is too high to just include automatically. Instead, we make money on spam. I'd say around half of our customers and almost all hosted domains take Postini.

We're actually using the usage stats to help us sell Postini. No one wants to pay an overage fee just to receive all that dang spam :-).

laters,

If you have not done it already, putting everyone on your Postini system will decrease your mail server bandwidth substantially.

I want to keep billing per bit. It's, by far, the most effective way to compete against cable and dsl. It's also a good way to push the hogs over to competing services. Our average user is running at about 1.7 gigs per month. This includes all of my servers and the mail server alone hit 50 gigs last month. So I'll bet that the average user is actually under 1.5 gigs per month.
